Regularly? Stop exaggerating. It was one time for over a little of a month, and only because a handful of popular streamers started playing FFXIV which brought on an influx of players SE wasn't accounting for the release of Endwalker. Guess what? Those same streams have all practically dropped FFXIV.

Average is average.
What an absolute genius.

Also, where do you get the idea that numbers are down?
Also

People are logging in less frequently because they've finished the MSQ
Incredible, folks! He answered his own question. I'll tell you anyway. Through Steam player count. While it doesn't include players using the FFXIV launcher, you can still get a general impression. Player count is already back down to numbers prior to the overwhelming influx of players caused by the streamers.

and as I've said time and again, there's no mass appeal in the repetitive end game content that you want the rest of the game to emulate. Just because I don't log in every single day anymore doesn't mean that I dropped my sub.
Cool, and I say there is a mass appeal in repetitive end game content. Doesn't make your opinion the right one.

As soon as the patch drops, you'll see the insane queues again.
